“Congratulations to Jay Z Not satisfied with Platinum alone, “Magna Carta…Holy Grail” is now DOUBLE-Platinum for selling more than two million copies in the United States,” reads the statement.

It took Hov two month to achieve this feat thanks, in large part, to his unprecedented deal with Samsung, in which the company bought a million copies of his album to distribute free to its customers via their phones. The deal forced the RIAA to change its policy when it came to tabulating digital albums.
